guided CHOCOLATE and wine pairing
A fascinating and elegant presentation and exploration of your personal taste preferences for wine with chocolate — LEAD BY CHOCOLATIER and pastry chef ZACH TOWNSEND
THE ACTIVITY: This fun, interactive, and informative chocolate event explores the intricacies of the flavors inherent in both fine chocolate and wine and how to bring the flavors of these two luxury items together. Participants will taste a selection of premium chocolate of varying cacao percentages and learn about their personal taste preferences.
The guided tasting progresses with hand-picked selections of several high-quality yet approachable wines paired with several premium chocolates. You will discuss together the flavor profiles of the wines and chocolates and learn the concepts of pairing and general rules on avoiding pairing pitfalls. You'll also get to compare how well-tuned your palate is compared to others in the group as Chef Zach tests your taste buds through fun, interactive questions to promote interaction among the group. The tasting ends with Chef Zach’s hand-made truffle using one of the tasting chocolates. What better way to socialize than over chocolate and wine?
